About this property
Discover the center of PORTUGAL and stay in a lovely farm - 80 km from Lisbon!
Farm with 12.000 m2, located in Raposa village (village center at 700 m), where you will find a restaurant, gas station and grocery store/mini market selling fresh bread from the area. A car is necessary for this type of stay. In the nearest towns, Almeirim at 12km, Santarém (Gothyc capital) at 20km to the West and Coruche at 20km to the East, you can do shopping, explore these beautiful and picturesque towns "ribatejanas" and try the rich typical local cuisine, in particular the "sopa de pedra" (with chorizo, pork, beans and vegetables) in Almeirim, and eel soup. Unmistakable local wine and fruits of the region. Lisbon is located to the SW of this region, 80 km away, and it is quite easy to get there both by car, via the A1 motorway, and by train, taking it from Santarém. Fátima is located to the north, 80 km. By A1 the trip lasts 50 minutes. Nazaré is located to the NW, 100 km. On the A15 and A8 motorways the journey takes 1 hour. Traditional rustic architecture has been fully respected at the farm, and the interior furniture is simple and wonderfully comfortable. The houses have an orientation East-West direction and open onto a charming garden (500m2) that ensures freshness on the hottest days. Reading, writing, painting or simply resting in the open air are activities that you can do in a bucolic environment full of serenity. You can also have barbecues outdoors, and enjoy the meal protected from the sun by the large shed at the entrance of the house guest, or in the garden. The guest accommodation is a ground floor apartment with an area of 60m2. It has one bedroom, a large living room with a dining area and a well-equipped kitchenette for the needs of a small family, and a bathroom with a shower. Great news!!! From April onwards, a second bedroom/studio is also available. It is located next to the apartment but with a separate entrance. For larger groups, this cozy bedroom/suite with 18m2 allows to accommodate more 1 or 2 people. The apartment's living room has a wood-burning stove for winter days and a powerful air conditioning unit, which warms in winter and cools in summer. The apartment is designed for 2, 3 or 4 people, with a double bed in the bedroom and a single bed in the living room in case there is a third person. A fourth bed can be made up of one of the sofas in the living room. We also have a cot available for families with babies. Babies have stay free of charge. The new bedroom/studio can accommodate two more people, it is approximately 18m2 in size and has two comfortable single beds, which can be converted into a double bed (queen size) on request. It has a small and beautiful bathroom with shower, and is equipped with air conditioning, a Smart TV, a fridge, a microwave, a kettle, a toaster, and an espresso machine. Also, with a table and chairs, glasses, and crockery for your private and simple meals. If you are traveling with a dog, the farm has a kennel, where you can leave it during your visits. We only accept dogs that are docile and polite, they must be kept on a leash outside and never left alone inside the accommodation. The stay of your dog has an additional cost. Owners live on the farm, in the family cottage, away from the guests.
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a kitchenette, and a washing machine. Housekeeping is available on request.

Sensation d'être chez soi !
Nous avons passé une semaine très très agréable dans la jolie maison de Véra . Elle est à l'image de la propriétaire : chaleureuse . Elle est très bien située puisqu'on est dans les terres et pas loin de la mer ( à peu près à 1 heure ) . A voir absolument : Evora , magnifique et Lisbonne , Sintra ... Nous n'avons pas eu assez de temps pour tout voir . Et un grand merci à Vera pour son accueil et sa gentillesse !!

Très agréable maison
Accueil très chaleureux dans cette agréable maison, très très bien équipée (il y a toute la vaisselle, le linge et l'électroménager qu'on peut souhaiter) et idéale pour les enfants: tout est prévu pour qu'ils s'amusent dans le jardin, même pour les tout petits. Nos enfants de 4 et 1 an y ont tous les deux trouvé leur bonheur.
En léger bémol, je dirais que le bruit des camions passant la nuit sur la route est parfois gênant, mais cela ne gâte pas le plaisir de profiter du jardin et l'impression de loger chez des amis tellement l'accueil est bon et la maison bien équipée (lits fait à l'arrivée, serviettes préparées, nappe sur la table).
Les sites touristiques sont à minimum 1 heure de route, mais cela ne nous a pas gênés, car la circulation est facile et de plus la localisation est assez centrale pour aller visiter aussi bien le bord de mer qu'Evora ou Tomar.
Très bonnes vacances en résumé.

A recommander
Un petit coin de paradis dans le sud du Portugal, une maison accueillante, dans un écrin de verdure, baignée par le soleil.
Le lieu idéal pour des vacances reposantes en famille. Les enfants sont en sécurité dans la propriété et la piscine est toujours la bienvenue.
La description de la location est conforme, la maison bien entretenue, la propriétaire Dona Vera très attentionnée.
De plus, la région offre une multitude de choses à découvrir.

"Um pássaro,dois pássaros...
"Um pássaro,dois pássaros,três pássaros,muitos pássaros,muitas árvores,muitas flores,muitas ovelhas,um gato Manuel,um jardim muito verde a meter-se pelos nossos olhos adentro,o cheiro do campo e o ar sempre renovado pela pureza das coisas belas,o vento que sopra e se junta ao sol que invade todos os recantos onde a vida vai crescendo devagar,sem pressas,ao ritmo próprio de uma natureza que não se preocupa se amanhã será outro dia,outra noite,outro sol,outra lua,e que apenas nos quer fazer felizes e estar ao nosso lado,para que a alegria de viver a "Herdade da Raposinha" seja uma lembrança que perdure nos nossos sentidos,e nos faça dizer,como dizia o poeta Agostinho Neto ;" Á nossa terra havemos de voltar" . Esta não é a minha terra, é apenas um lugar no meu coração,por isso havemos de voltar."

"Antes de mais gostaria de agradecer a disponibilidade para nos receber na sua confortável casa de campo. O espaço era agradável e para quem aprecia a calma do campo, foi uma experiência agradável. De certo que no Verão poderemos repetir com a vantagem do clima e da piscina.
Apenas de notar, algumas das vedações envolventes não se encontravam íntegras."
"Les plus : Jolie maison ancienne, très bien équipée, superbe terrasse abritée par une glycine
Les moins : proximité de la nationale (un peu bruyant la nuit)."

"É um local de fácil acesso que tem a grande vantagem do espaço exterior muito agradável onde se proporcionam condições para descansar ou fazer uma refeição diferente ao ar livre... Gostei muito dos dias em que lá estive, era praticamente como estar em casa.
É um local acolhedor e calmo, onde me senti em segurança e confortavelmente instalada."
